From e67cc80b50f587cd1d8ffc8989dcec3291720bc3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aditya Garg Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 04:37:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: mana: Return error code from mana_create_rxq() mana_create_rxq() returns a struct mana_rxq pointer and returns NULL on any failure. The caller, mana_add_rx_queues(), cannot tell what went wrong and hardcodes the error as -ENOMEM. As a result the actual failure reported by the lower layers (for example -EPROTO from a failed HW request) is masked and every RX queue creation failure looks like an out-of-memory error. Return an ERR_PTR() encoded error code from mana_create_rxq() on failure instead of NULL. The caller now propagates the returned error code directly instead of substituting -ENOMEM.
